Grants to Enhance and Advance Research and Scholarship |
The Ivan Allen College is launching a revised internal grants program to support research and scholarly activities led by IAC faculty. This program — Grants to Enhance and Advance Research and Scholarship (GEARS) — replaces our existing Small Grants for Research (SGR) and Short-term Opportunity for Professional Development and Scholarly Activities (SODA) programs.
Please note that applications are due by Friday, Nov. 8 at 5 p.m. We hope that by moving the funding cycle earlier in the academic year, we will facilitate planning by both faculty and schools and enhance the impact of our internal funding programs. The full RFP is available on the IAC Research Administration website. Submissions should be made through the Georgia Tech InfoReady system.
